Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting from Attribute Points Allocation - Chapter 770

Chapter 770: Chapter 387: Steamrolling the Competition, An Unexpected Opponent_2

Even he couldn’t pass through the sixteenth level of the Forbidden Tower, it was unlikely that Tai Yuan pulse would produce such individuals.

Lu Yun believed that within the Heavenly Human Realm, it was impossible for someone to exist whose combat power was stronger than his at present.

At least, within the Tai Yuan pulse of the Green Flame Palace, there shouldn’t be anyone.

After all, while cultivating the Saint Body Method, he also simultaneously cultivated the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength. Under their mutual enhancement, both his holy body and the anomaly of the holy body far surpassed other Heavenly Prides who practiced the same cultivation method.

As Lu Yun’s thoughts drifted, on the Cloud Sea not far from him, the light of dawn twinkled, solidifying into a figure.

Upon closer inspection, under the Eyes of Aurora, nothing could hide.

Above the Cloud Sea stood a young man adorned in a blue-edged embroidered robe, wearing a jade belt, holding a silver-white folding fan, his face brimming with a smile, his aristocratic aura was compelling.

In the moment this young man appeared, there were already people from the Outside Realms who couldn’t help exclaiming.

“Zhou Yichen?!”

Clearly, Zhou Yichen’s reputation in the Tai Yuan pulse was even greater than Ran Qianshan’s. He had just revealed himself, and not one but multiple people recognized him.

Even without an explanation, upon hearing this name, a multitude of rumors regarding Zhou Yichen surfaced in the minds of most.

A True Spirit Realm powerhouse, one of the most powerful core disciples, possessing astonishing potential, one of the Heavenly Prides with the highest likelihood to receive the True Teachings, he indeed possessed many glorious titles.

Of course, his ability to appear within the sixteenth level of the Forbidden Tower evidently meant he had also reached the pinnacle of the Heavenly Human Realm before.

However, after witnessing the anomaly of the holy body displayed by Ran Qianshan, upon seeing Zhou Yichen again, people were not as shocked as before.

They merely wondered in their hearts whether Zhou Yichen would be able to halt Lu Yun’s advance.

After all, in the rumors concerning Zhou Yichen, there was never a mention of him practicing the Saint Body Method.

Unlike the mysterious Ran Qianshan, Zhou Yichen often appeared in public, becoming a prominent figure in both the Tai Yuan pulse and the entirety of Green Flame Palace. Most ordinary disciples knew much about Zhou Yichen.

One thing was certain, Zhou Yichen definitely did not practice the Saint Body Method.

Being someone who always preferred to make a grand show of things, he would have proudly displayed his excellence if he did indeed cultivate the Saint Body Method or the related anomaly, had that been the case.

“Lu Yun is quite lucky to have encountered Zhou Yichen. With this development, he’s now a step closer to reaching the summit,” Dongfang Qing thought, his lips involuntarily curving into a smirk.

In comparison, when he first entered the sixteenth level of the Forbidden Tower, he faced three holy bodies in continuous battles.

The time he was most fortunate, he still encountered two holy bodies.

He had entered the Forbidden Tower no less than ten times, with his best result being reaching the sixth platform.

Completing the tower and reaching the summit was immensely difficult, nearly an impossibility.

Besides, no one knew what lay beyond the completion of the tower, so he simply chose not to continue his obsession with the Forbidden Tower and opted to break through to ascend as an elite disciple.

In just over a decade, he steadily climbed, achieving his current realm.

Upon reflection, the numerous scenes within the Forbidden Tower quickly flashed through his mind.

Not being able to complete the tower and reach the summit was, for him, a form of regret.

His gaze fell upon Lu Yun, filled with both expectation and complexity.

In his heart, he both hoped Lu Yun would complete the tower to reveal what lay at the very top.

Yet, he was also afraid of Lu Yun reaching the summit, for after all, Lu Yun was equivalent to his future rival. With such a remarkably outstanding individual emerging, would not all the Heavenly Prides eventually live in his shadow?

Heavenly Prides were such a complex group, simultaneously yearning for a rival capable of contending with them and fearing their own luster being eclipsed.

Inside the Forbidden Tower, Lu Yun’s expression was stern. Through the Eyes of Aurora, he discerned that the young man’s realm was astonishingly the twelfth level of the Heavenly Human Realm.

At the same time, the Divine Power that had just settled down inside him stirred once more, instinctively resisting the imposing aura emanating from the young man.

What he didn’t realize was that the young man was even more astonished than him.

Upon first laying eyes on Lu Yun, the young man—that is, the projection of Zhou Yichen—underwent an instinctive reaction. It was as if he had encountered a sworn enemy, resulting in a black flame halo appearing above his head, igniting his most primal instincts and showing significant resistance.

Lu Yun, dressed in a purple robe, drifted gently like ripples on water. Standing there, he radiated a particularly mysterious aura. His gaze was suddenly drawn to Zhou Yichen’s abrupt change, and his pupils involuntarily shrank.

That sensation felt somewhat familiar, yet he couldn’t recall it at the moment.

However, the following scene instantly ignited his memory.

Zhou Yichen’s body became enveloped in black flames, which highlighted the halo of black flame over his head, lending it an aura of nobility and mystery.

“It’s been a long time since I encountered an opponent that would cause my black flame to boil over on its own!” Zhou Yichen narrowed his eyes, flames flowing around him, surging with a strong will to battle.

Time seemed to freeze in that moment, only to be shattered by the thunderous sound of the air being torn apart.

All kinds of flames erupted from Zhou Yichen’s body, evaporating the vast Cloud Sea, and charged towards Lu Yun.

“It is indeed the Black Prison Flame Body!”

The Blood Slaughter Blade in Lu Yun’s hand let out a long cry, a mighty slash fell, with a blade aura illuminating the eternal starry sky, countering the oncoming Sea of Fire.

It must be said, despite both utilizing the Black Prison Flame Body, compared to Zhou Yichen, Liu Yeqing was merely a younger brother, with no grounds for comparison.

Especially Zhou Yichen’s Black Prison Flame Body, which had reached the level of condensing black flames, creating a fearsome black flame inferno.
